Independent review needed for Emergency department at University Hospital Limerick

Monday 10 February 2014

Calls are being made for an independent review of the Emergency Department of University Hospital Limerick to be carried out immediately.

The Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation says the department is in utter chaos due to persistent overcrowding.

Several concerned family members of patients have contacted Live95fm News to express their worries about the unsatisfactory situation, where patients are being treated on trolleys in corridors, where in some cases the trolleys are blocking fire exits.
